When the Wind is Sweet: The Fairy Tale of Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster

Chapter 346: Dustin Shepherd’s Unauthorized Decision

"Don’t worry, matters of the heart are arranged by fate," Serena Sutton said at this moment, almost like someone with experience, a trace of a sorrowful smile on her face, "beyond our control as humans."

"Does Miss Sutton have a story too?"

"A story of unrequited love." Somehow, tonight she didn’t treat him like an outsider at all.

Drinking wine, listening to music, she started talking to him—

"I once liked a boy, liked him very, very much, but I never confessed. When I decided to confess, he was already married."

Wasn’t she talking about President Lancaster?

Actually, when it comes to emotions, Dustin Shepherd had some resonance with Serena Sutton, so they were kindred spirits, both with experiences of unrequited love.

That night, in President Lancaster’s mansion, the lights were bright.

In the spacious yard, the grass was lush, the night breeze gentle, the blooming season of the Chinese crabapple trees had passed, leaves swaying in the wind, rustling.

In the master bedroom designed with a stylish yet comfortable flair, the lights were a warm yellow, soft and not glaring.

Adrian Lancaster came out after his shower, wearing slippers, he walked to the window, gently embraced Faye Turner’s soft body from behind.

She came back to her senses, smiling as she held the hands crossed over her rounded belly, "Adrian, the moon is so beautiful tonight."

She had been watching it alone for half an hour, long since having had such a peaceful moment.

Adrian Lancaster bent slightly, resting his chin lightly on her shoulder, gazing up at the horizon. The moon tonight was very round and large, emitting a bright glow.

"No matter how beautiful, it can’t compare to the beauty of the person admiring it," President Lancaster blurted out. For the first time, he said such a cheesy line, yet it wasn’t greasy.

Faye Turner, listening to his deep, wine-soaked magnetic voice, couldn’t help but tease, "Did Mr. Lancaster have some candy just now?"

The man, smelling the faint herbal fragrance emanating from her, closed his eyes in a bit of a daze.

The girl seemed to hear him breathing greedily...

This reminded Faye Turner of Mr. Kerr’s warning, and she too was worried that Sienna might take Adrian away.

At that moment, she felt her own inner fear, her heart would ache with a dull pain.

Did he go see her again?

Did he feel guilty?

Is his subjective consciousness resisting divorce? So he’s trying to be closer to her?

In reality, as long as he’s willing to come closer, deep down, Faye Turner would accept it.

From the beginning, Faye Turner never inquired about anything concerning Sienna, remaining quiet as if she was oblivious to the outside world.

Pretending to know nothing, waiting for the day when he would voluntarily confess to her, at that moment, he should have completely let go.

The next morning.

Prestige Group, in the president’s office.

A senior executive came in, directly handed a thick stack of documents to Dustin Shepherd, "Assistant Shepherd, these are the top ten candidates’ profiles. Take a look when you have time. The interviews start at ten in the morning, I’ve already notified everyone."

"Alright."

After taking the documents, Dustin Shepherd casually placed them to the side.

First, he finished the work at hand, comparing some data and signing a couple of documents.

By the time he finished those and began thoroughly reviewing the profiles, it was already nine-twenty.

The top ten were outstanding contestants emerging from over a hundred thousand people. Whether in terms of appearance, demeanor, education, or special skills, they were exceptionally competitive.

Dustin Shepherd flipped through each file casually, since in a moment he’d also be one of the judges, he felt he should have a basic understanding of these ten people.

When he came across one of the profiles, that face seemed familiar, and that name—Sienna Dawson.

It made Dustin Shepherd’s face instantly darken!

Without much hesitation, he immediately picked out Sienna Dawson’s file and threw it into the shredder, then called the senior executive who had brought the documents.

"Assistant Shepherd, what’s the matter?" the other party inquired.

Dustin Shepherd said to him sternly, "You only need to notify nine. Sienna Dawson has been removed."
